Our weekly look at the bail bond industry. In some ways it is a bizzare industry. There are elements of law enforcement that don't like it, there are politicians that hate it, there are DA's that would lose no sleep if it went away. And of course last but not lease there is the man or woman that needs it!

Happiness however can be replaced by sadness in a heartbeat. Don't turn up for a court date, expect to have a grumpy Bail Bondsman knocking on your door.

A question I am going to ask this week is how seriously threats of death or Bodily Damage taken? Sure, most are said in the heat of the moment, but some, are cold and calculated.

I invite listeners to call in and join the conversation

Trump adopys a new musical theme, we can over comb. The big question is that he is the front runner. Can he stay there? The Iran deal festers, is it good or bad? The question of who lives matter? Do black lives matter more than white ones? How much damage is trump doing to the RNC brand?

Yes folks, we are back. We have some great topics to discuss, it doesn't matter if you are in the Bail Bond or PI industry, or just a man on the street. We have something for everyone.

Our weekly look at news and current events. The GOP and the Tump effect. Is it possible to muzzle him? What would happen if he ran as an independent?

Blurred Vision is a 3-piece progressive/psychedelic/pop rock outfit comprised of guitarist & vocalist Sepp Osley, bassist Sohl Osley and drummer Ben Riley. The band's career was launched in 2010, when the endorsement of Pink Floyd founder Roger Waters brought them international acclaim.

Blurred Vision release their debut album 'Organized Insanity' on April 6, signed to a worldwide distribution deal through Cherry Red Records (UK). 'Organized Insanity' reveals personal stories of the modern day culture of relationships and love, while also touching on controversial themes of war, politics, religion, and the state of the music scene today. Produced by multi platinum selling producer Terry Brown, the band's unique style varies from the progressive and psychedelic rock of the 70’s, the mystical and exotic sounds and melodies of the Mid East, to an amalgamation of contemporary and unique new Rock ‘N’ Roll songs with memorable hooks and great pop sensibilities.

Our weekly look at politics and current events. It has been a busy week. No doubt the GOP reaching for the Tums after Trump has announced his presidential bid. Putin is adding to his nuke stockpile, that should do wonders for world peace. Pope comes out of the closet on Global Warming, and Jeb is unhappy. Oh there is so much to talk about

Tom Caufield is a contemplative guitarist with an uncommonly melodic style, and though his music shares traits with ambient music, one still walks away humming identifiable melodies that float in an effortless dream-stream, built into traditional verse-chorus-bridge structures. “I grew up on the popular rock, pop, folk and soul of the times,” says Caufield of his musical boyhood, “so even when I make contemplative mood music, I can’t help but infuse it with a strong melodic storyline.” That’s good news for listeners who love relaxing music and memorable hooks.

I will be sitting down with Tom to discuss his latest CD Things I Heard In The Womb.
